Abstract |
To reconstruct fast atmospheric trace gas variations from polar ice cores it has to be considered that their amplitudes are attenuated during the enclosure process in the ice. Relevant processes for the attenuation are the molecular diffusion in the open pores of the firn column and the gradual bubble close off in the depth of the transition from firn to ice. These processes depend mainly on temperature and accumulation rate and lead e.g. to a strong attenuation for cold sites with low accumulation rates. With a diffusion and enclosure model it is possible to calculate the attenuation for a single event and to compare ice core records from different sites. We investigate the atmospheric methane (CH4) variation during the cold event 8200 years ago and calculate that its amplitude as recorded in the EPICA Dome C ice core is attenuated to a magnitude between 34% and 59%. |

Abstract |
Modeling the densification of polar firn is essential to estimate variations of close-off characteristics (density, close-off depth, delta age) in relation with past climate parameters (temperature and accumulation rates). Furthermore, the air composition in the firn is modified by gravitational and thermal fractionation, and stable isotope measurements of permanent gases like nitrogen or argon can provide information on the amplitude of these fractionations. In this work, we propose a new model coupling firn densification and heat diffusion. In addition to the determination of the firn thickness and gas-ice age differences, the model allows a reconstruction of the time evolution of the temperature for different sites in Antarctica (Vostok) and Greenland (GISP2) and therefore the evolution of gravitational and thermal isotopic fractionations in firn. Under present-day conditions, the modeled profiles are in good agreement with the available temperature measurements in firn. For sites with low accumulation rates such as Vostok, the results show the existence of temperature gradients in the firn column even when no rapid climatic changes occur. The comparison of the modeled ?15N results to measurements allows to better constrain the ?18O-temperature relationship, used to infer the surface temperature history, and for GISP2, the model validates the long-term borehole-based temperature. |

Abstract |
Stratospheric ozone is enriched in the heavy isotopes (17O and 18O) relative to the ambient oxygen from which it is formed. This enrichment varies with altitude, attaining very high values between 30 and 40 km. A recent theory of Y. Q. Gao and R. A. Marcus explores the reasons for isotopic enrichment in the process of ozone formation and is particularly useful to understand the laboratory results. The stratospheric variations are sought to be explained in terms of temperature dependence of isotopic enrichment, but the magnitude of variation does not match with predictions accurately. We demonstrate here that isotopic enrichment in ozone generated by oxygen photolysis depends on the pressure of the oxygen reservoir and can have very high values (at about 15 torr), comparable to the highest observed stratospheric values. Analysis of the data shows that secondary enrichment through ozone dissociation can add to the primary enrichment associated with ozone formation. The effect of dissociation is found to be more pronounced in the pressure range of 15 to 50 torr, resulting in high enrichment. It is shown that the relative kinetics, pressure and temperature conditions of ozone formation and dissociation play an important role in determining the ultimate value of the enrichment. The results are particularly useful to understand the stratospheric data and resolve the observed discrepancy. |

Abstract |
We have built a Sv-wavespeed tomographic model for the upper mantle beneath the Siberian platform and surrounding region derived from the analysis of more than 13,000 fundamental and higher mode regional waveforms. The dense path coverage and rich higher mode content of the data allow building an upper mantle image with an horizontal resolution of a few hundred kilometers extending to ?400 km depth. The high velocity, upper mantle lid or seismic lithosphere is ?200 km thick beneath most of the Siberian platform but may extend to ?250 km depth beneath small areas. A high velocity seismic lid also underlies a large region west of the Siberian platform. Our observation of a ?200 thick seismic lithosphere beneath the Siberian platform on the slow-moving Eurasian plate, similar to the thickness of the seismic lithosphere beneath Precambrian terrains on the fast-moving Australian plate, suggests that a moderately thick seismic lithosphere beneath Precambrian terrains may be more common than previously supposed. |
